It is an object of the present technology to overcome the disadvantages of conventional chlorination of a copper phthalocyanine which produces copper phthalocyanine, wherein the number of chlorines is less than or equal to 4. The pigments described herein contain less chlorine than standard commercial grades of tetrachlorinated (or greater) copper phthalocyanine pigments while achieving similar color space, chromaticity, fastness properties, and color travel in automotive waterborne and solvent borne systems. The inventive pigments are more advantageous from a toxicity and environmental perspective, and allow the manufacturer to produce pigments in a safe and economical manner.

A method for producing a halogenated zinc phthalocyanine pigment includes a step of forming a halogenated zinc phthalocyanine crude pigment into a pigment. The halogenated zinc phthalocyanine crude pigment is obtained by deposition of a halogenated zinc phthalocyanine, which is synthesized by using a compound that generates an acid by reacting with water, and the step includes a pretreatment step of heating the halogenated zinc phthalocyanine crude pigment in water to obtain a halogenated zinc phthalocyanine prepigment having a pH of 5.0 or more.

The present invention relates to a colorant, a colored resin composition comprising the colorant, and a color filter prepared using the colored resin composition. A novel reddish yellow pigment may be used in combination with a green pigment and a yellow pigment in order to reduce the imbalance of the intramolecular polarization of the green pigment and/or the yellow pigment in the colorant. As a result, a color filter comprising a colored layer in which a light leakage phenomenon, caused by an electric field distortion, is reduced.
